Guess Who's Coming to Denver?

I'm thrilled to be one of the thousands of people who will be in Denver next April to take a stand for free speech online, independent voices and media that serve the public. That's what the National Conference for Media Reform is all about — getting inspiration from fellow activists and fighting back against corporate media and technology giants that put profits over people.

Here's a sneak peek at who will be joining us in Denver:

Evangeline Lilly: actress from Lost and TheHobbit

Staceyann Chin: award-winning artist

Malkia Cyril: visionary media justice leader

Susan Crawford: former White House technology adviser

Melissa Fitzgerald: actress and activist best known for her role on The West Wing

We’ll tackle lots of big questions in Denver. Will innovation and creativity flourish online, or will corporations lock the Internet down? How will the next generation of journalists redefine what it means to report the news? Will communities have access to the technologies they need to solve the problems they face? How can we take on big companies and corrupted policymakers — and win?
